WTT - 1-7/8 x8 backplate for 1-1/2x8 backplate

Hello all.

I'm interested in trading one lathe chuck back plate for another.

I have a backplate that comes off a No 4006 Cushman 4 jaw independant lathe chuck which is threaded for a 1-7/8 x 8 lathe spindle.

I'd like to swap it for a back plate to fit the same chuck but threaded for the 1-1/2 x 8 spindle on my 9 inch Southbend lathe.

The back plate recess in the chuck body measures 3.5 inches in diameter and employs a square four bolt pattern measuring 2 inches on one side of the square, hole center to hole center.

The backplate I have is in good condition and I have digital images I can send along.

Anybody here have a mutual interest in making this trade?

Thanks,

Dennis van Dam

Hey Dennis,

I think that an esteemed member of this NG was looking fior one of those less than a month ago. Marty Escarcega. I'll try to rattle his chain and see if that is correct.

Always a good idea to indicate what part of the world you need this at. Shipping back-plates very far in a swap can easliy cost more than a plate locally.

Takwe care.

Thanks Brian, what I'm looking for is an 8" faceplate with 1-3/4x8TPI threads. Marty

Good point. I'm in Chattanooga Tennessee (but originally from Toronto up by you).....(Then again if Bothwell is in the northern reaches of Ontario I might be closer to Toronto than you are)......(but not by much). (-8

Shipping is not going to be a problem as both "back plates" are more the size and shape of hockey pucks and don't weigh much more.

Thanks for the input,

Dennis

CORRECTION - That's a No 4006 *SKINNER* not Cushman lathe chuck.

Sorry for the error.

(Really doesn't matter that much the specs on the backplate are still the same.)

Carry on.
